Spectra between 1000 and 1450 A for 60 O- and B-type stars observed by Copernicus at 0.2-A resolution are presented in three forms: tables containing the numerical data, plots showing renormalized spectra, and synthetic photographic spectra. The data have been corrected for all instrument effects of importance for the photometric accuracy except fluctuations in continuum level caused by small variations in spacecraft guidance. Spectrometer sensitivity curves are provided for use in converting to absolute fluxes. It is expected that this catalog will be of use for research on many aspects of stellar UV spectra, including spectral classification, line identification, abundance determinations, spectrum synthesis, model atmosphere calculations, flux distributions, bolometric corrections, stellar winds, and mass loss.
